NCCW is planning to migrate up to 70 housing associations covering 600,000
properties to the solution over the next 10 years.

Dave Meaden, managing director of Northgate Public Services, said: “We are
delighted to continue our relationship with NCCW and to support it in its goal
of delivering a continuously improving service to its customers. The agreement
will allow Northgate’s Housing solution to better serve the needs of social
housing providers in the Netherlands.”

Separately, Northgate Information Solutions is also involved in a PDA
roll-out with the British Transport Police (BTP) in partnership with mobile-data
specialist Beat Systems.

Last week it was revealed that more than 400 BTP officers have already
received their PDAs to help them carry out mobile criminal checks on the London
Underground system.

By next month, every officer in BTP’s Reassurance teams will be able to use a
PDA to obtain an instant check on a person’s criminal history and share
information gathered by other officers.

Paul Crowther, chief superintendent at BTP, said: “The PDA is a robust
addition to our crime-fighting kit. It allows us to better drill down into
criminal activity.”

John Strutton, crime and disorder partnership manager at London Underground,
said: “Transport for London has funded 200 extra BTP officers over the past two
years and this initiative is another demonstration of the effort put into
maintaining a safe and secure underground system.”
